💨 Abstract

Three Ice Age mastodons have been discovered in Peru, with one possibly being the best-preserved mastodon in the country. The find, in the valley of Chambara, has sparked questions about how these behemoths reached the area. Scientists believe they may have migrated from North America in search of food and water as climate conditions changed, with the Andes mountain range and dried-up lagoons potentially providing a route.
